Policy advocacy shifts systems to uphold rights and protect the planet.

We push institutions, investors, and companies to prioritize local needs and knowledge – maximizing impact and preventing harm.

When decisions that affect land and livelihoods are made without consulting local communities, the risk of harm is high. The antidote is accountability – when investors have channels to hear directly from impacted communities, we can protect rights, access remedy, and prevent future harm.

As experts in these channels, we leverage lessons from our casework and research to strengthen the systems, safeguards, and practices at investing institutions that guide trillions of dollars every year. By ensuring investors hear and heed the voices of communities, we are making accountability accessible today and standard practice tomorrow.

Our policy advocacy shifts power to communities and shifts systems to prioritize people and planet over profits.

Our Accountability Toolkit offers data, tools, and resources to drive systems change.
